Because if it is you walked from point a to b and covered an infinite amount of points in space. So that same argument can be applied to the time thing.
I'm not understanding that
So matter isn't infinitely divisible like time and space is?
u mad bro ???
No matter isnt
No, are you?
So what's the smallest unit in matter?
u maaaaaaad bro ? @IAmHiding
Subatomic particles
Wouldnt it be whatever makes up quarks
Depends on the thing you’re talking about. Idk particle physics really at all but it’s quarks and I think electrons are fundamental particles too. Idk that field at all though
Yeah and then other theories have other ideas about what it could be like the string people
but all you know is there is a fundamental unit there that cannot itself be divided
Ur dink
what is going on here
Time can be divided to no end and matter cannot, there is a point where you cant split it, like there cant be half of a quark
what is this arguemney
Is what im asuming he is saying
Right
And time
well no the atom is the smallest unit of matter because a unit ascribes measurable qualities
you cannot measure the subatomic
completely
Wrong
W R... O... N. G <:trump:402385775200829440>
You can by shooting beams of light into it
you can measure indivual qualities but not all at once
That’s partially true but you can say the same for an atom
well i guess you can measure protons and netrons
Though the uncertainty principle makes it a range
but for all intents and purposes the atom is the smallest relvant unit
Relevant for what
It's not really relevant to the topic that started this convo
True
theres a pretty interesting podcast on the subatomic world from this guy called "talk to a spaceman" called "the particle zoo" that talks about the subatomic particles
like 20 min
That stuff is pretty cool
I think alphonsus left 😦
